'David Marr’s voice is ubiquitous, at least within the purlieus of the liberal Left. It’s also unique; the cultivated accent of the WASP establishment (although Sydney’s Shore was ‘‘a rotten school’’), slightly breathy, energetic, lengthening and emphasising an abnormal number of words, supremely confident, without hesitation, punchy, colloquial, witty and frequently withering.' (Introduction)
